liens Stole My Ute (And Left Me a Crop Circle)

Lyrics

Mate… you’re not gonna believe what happened last Tuesday arvo… I was out past Woomera, chasing a rogue kangaroo, Old ute rattling, full of tools and a six-pack or two. Bright green light hit the bonnet like a bloody spotlight, Next thing I’m floating ten feet up in the dead of night! Little grey blokes with big black eyes stared right at me, One of ‘em held up a probe and said “G’day, mate… CBD?” Aliens stole my ute! Left me a crop circle instead! Big shiny saucer hovering over my head! They probed the engine, they probed the tray, Took my esky and my favourite Akubra hat away! Aliens stole my ute! What a ripper night! Now I’m walking home under the southern lights! Spooky little buggers from outer space, But they left me a perfect circle in the barley place! They beamed me up, put me in a chair made of light, Showed me the galaxy and asked “You got any VB, right?” I said “Sorry fellas, you took the whole bloody slab!” They laughed in weird clicks and gave me a weird kebab. Tried to explain footy, they just tilted their heads, Then downloaded every episode of Home and Away instead! Aliens stole my ute! Left me a crop circle instead! Big shiny saucer hovering over my head! They probed the engine, they probed the tray, Took my esky and my favourite Akubra hat away! Aliens stole my ute! What a ripper night! Now I’m walking home under the southern lights! Spooky little buggers from outer space, But they left me a perfect circle in the barley place! They spoke through my radio in a voice like thunder, Said “Your planet’s mad, but your barbecues are a wonder!” Gave me a glowing rock as a souvenir, Then dropped me back down with a “See ya next year!” Now the government says it was just swamp gas and beer, But I’ve got the photos and a weird green stain on my gear. Every full moon I leave snags out on the hood, Just in case those cheeky aliens come back for some good! Karen down the road says I’ve lost the plot, But she’s never seen a flying saucer use a roundabout! Aliens stole my ute! Best night of my life! Left me a crop circle sharper than a Stanley knife! They took the VB, they took the tools, But they left me the greatest bloody story for the pub, you fools! Aliens stole my ute! Come back anytime! Spooky outer-space legends, absolute legends of mine! From Woomera to the stars and back again, Best bloody abduction in the history of Aussie men! Yeah… if your ute goes missing one quiet night, Don’t panic mate — it’s probably just an alien delight! Aliens… you bloody rippers!
